As thoughts and emotions come through our minds, whether consciously or subconsciously we harbor some of them. While some float on through, our mind grabs onto others and anchors them down, absorbing them, believing them. Just as we care for our bodies by choosing carefully what we eat or drink, we must also care for our minds and hearts by being selective in what thoughts and feelings we allow to be anchored. What comes in eventually sees its way out whether through words, actions, physical appearance etc. What we anchor in our minds affects our perception of oneself and the around us. It affects our relationships, mood and daily life. Today take a moment to dig into what your allowing a permanent space for in your mind snd heart. Is it helpful, uplifting, true? Is it encouraging you to be a better version of yourself, or is that anchor just weighing you down? Do you have anchors weighing others down?

This analogy sums up most of the main points, together with those whom we are building relationships, we should be building...
